Abstract
An automobile bicycle carrier having spaced rigid side frames providing vehicle engaging feet on the ends thereof and bicycle support members attached by mounting plates to the side frames for angular adjustment relative thereto about a pivot axis extending crosswise between the side frames. The mounting plates have a plurality of openings arranged in an arcuate pattern concentric with the pivot axis to enable adjustment of the support members relative to the side frames so that the support members can extend generally horizontally when the carrier is mounted with the vehicle engaging feet in different positions between a generally horizontal plane and a generally upright plane to adapt the carrier for use on vehicles of widely different types.
